Re: REMD history file and question

The standard error output contains accepted exchanges: replica number,
temperature, replica number, temperature, run number ( for example
EXCHANGE_ACCEPT 9 (412.21) 10 (427.34) RUN 7)
You can save it to an output file by commenting the line in the
replica.namd file:
# puts stderr "EXCHANGE_ACCEPT $rid ($temp) $rid2 ($temp2) RUN $i_run"
and adding the lines:
set acceptance_file [open $output/acceptance.dat a ]
puts $acceptance_file "EXCHANGE_ACCEPT $rid ($temp) $rid2 ($temp2) RUN
$i_run"
close $acceptance_file

and then calculate the percentage:
numrepl=18
input=outputREMD/acceptance.dat
total=`grep RUN $input | tee matches.txt | wc -l `
rm matches.txt
sum=0
for (( i=1; $i <= $numrepl ; i=$i+1 )) ; do
accepted=`grep $i $input | tee matches.txt | wc -l `
rm matches.txt
sum=$(($sum+$accepted))
done
acceptance_ratio=`echo "($sum / (($numrepl * $total))*100)" | bc -l`
echo "acceptance_ratio=" $acceptance_ratio "%"
